Digger giant JCB who has two factories at the Harewood Estate, Leek Road, Cheadle donated £1,500 each to Cheadle Carnival, and the town’s Party in the Park.
Handing over the cheques, JCB Compact Products Operations Manager Jamie Barker said: “Cheadle is home to two important JCB manufacturing sites – our Compact Products and Earthmovers factories – and many of our employees are local families, so we are delighted to give back to the community that supports us so well. These events are the lifeblood of the community and I am sure they will both be a great success.”
Cheadle Carnival will take place from Friday July 10th to Sunday, July 12th at Tean Road Recreation Ground and will feature a "Rave on the Rec" on Friday, a parade and live music on Saturday, and family-friendly activities throughout the weekend.
Carnival Committee spokesperson Hayley Beresford said: “After being cancelled in 2025 owing to lack of funds, we are delighted to be back with a brilliant line-up of entertainment for the whole town to enjoy. As a volunteer committee we rely on fundraising and sponsorship from local businesses to make the carnival happen and we are grateful to JCB for their continued support.”
Cheadle’s family fun day ‘Party in the Park’ will be on Sunday August 9th at Tean Road Recreation Ground and will feature a main arena act, live music, free entertainment for children, food and drink outlets and charity stalls.
Accepting the cheque on behalf of the Party in the Park, Town Mayor Cllr. Kate Mills said: “Cheadle Town Council’s annual Party in the Park has become a firm favourite with the local community and the continued support of JCB and other local businesses means it can remain a free event for families to enjoy.“
